You’ll have a great time, but don’t take our word for it…

I had a great vacation here. The food, the rooms, the boats were amazing. The staff went above and beyond. Incredible when seeing to our needs. Thank you!

Our sixth visit was another exceptional time for us. The resort continues to amaze with a level of care and concern that we totally enjoy. Any issue—which were few—was resolved with diligent timing. The smiling welcome at the restaurant was only the start to a great meal. The food always brings exclamations, enjoyment, and satisfaction, and our food issues were always handled with care. On and to/from the boats and jetty, the dive helpers really pitch in to ease our dives. From helping pull off wetsuits to checking gear, we truly felt the whole team was there to ensure a great dive, and their enthusiasm is much appreciated. Our dive guide was exceptional at finding fish and creatures, and his care and concern really made the trip the experience that it was. We most definitely will be requesting him for our next trip. The sign above our villa door is “Home away from home.” And Wakatobi is.

We booked the Residence. A very luxurious villa with excellent service. It combines one of the best diving areas in the world with one of the best luxury experiences in the world. But the most important thing is the idea behind the resort: 5 stars for everything.

The staff are wonderful – they treat you like royalty!

The entire experience is unmatched anywhere – the food was gourmet – the keep staff always there to ensure you were taken care of. Diving is an experience I have not had even with 600 dives. The close personal service of the dive master was excellent. The facility is impeccable and you do a good job in controlling the mosquitos in the area. Thanks for making my dive vacation memorable and taking good care of us. As in the word: Boutique Service!

Staff is amazing, Food is fantastic, rooms are excellent. Diving is great and dive boats are best I’ve seen.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the stay at Wakatobi. This has been the best resort I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing and I have visited many. The diving was great with an excellent dive and knowledgeable dive staff and boats were all maintained and equipped. I was well taken care of by my dive guide who was excellent. The restaurant and servers were friendly, learned our names on the first days and the food was fantastic. The accommodations were equally great. I will grant my highest recommendation to your resort.

What a lovely place! The bungalows are really pretty and immaculately maintained. I have  a Palm Bungalow all to myself and it feels really spacious. I love the foot cleaning faucets out front – they work great! It just seems like everything is so well thought out. I also love all the space on the dive boats and how every hanger and basket are labelled. The food is great and so many choices. The service is well beyond all that I need. This place is beautiful and so well run—the nicest dive resort that I have ever been to!

As always, Wakatobi stands out as exceptional in the world of dive resort. There have been a lot of welcome improvements since the last time we visited. The food continues to be exceptional – especially considering the remoteness of the island. There are not enough words to describe how wonderful all of the staff are. Love the idea of their name tags saying what their passion is – a great place to start a conversation!

100% recommend, we loved the diving, dining, and overall experience. The staff is fantastic!

Your service is absolutely amazing. Your staff in the dining area is outstanding. Your staff on the boat has been equally impressive. And our dive masters have been incredible. Ten out of ten—should surely be on everyones bucket list.

A definite must see. Great diving, great food and great service!

It was a long way to get here, but well worth the trip. Indonesian has long been known for great diving, but Wakatobi Resort makes it even more special. We loved all crew members from house personnel to boat captains and dive guides and especially the grounds crew who care and tend to the pathways, making our walk through the jungle extra nice! What a wonderful resort! You make everyone feel so special. The crew members are so attentive and make sure you get everything you want. Everything was perfect! Thank you!

This is my fourth and my husband’s fifth visit, and we continue to return for a multitude of reasons. As an underwater photographer, my husband especially loves the amazing sea life, and we deeply appreciate Wakatobi’s respect for the natural world and commitment to preserving it for generations to come. The people here bring us back; after many visits, they feel like family. We always look forward to seeing them and catching up on their lives. With every visit, my respect for the resort grows. The food has never been better—so many choices, expertly prepared, with barely any repeats over our two-week stay.

Every interaction, from service to spa treatments, is exceptional. The dedication of the entire team makes our stay memorable. Wakatobi is truly a special place, one we choose to return to again and again. We are grateful for all the care and effort that goes into creating such a remarkable experience—thank you, thank you, thank you!

No words can describe how wonderful Wakatobi is, from under the water to above, all the people who work here are so helpful and polite, you will feel pampered and want for nothing but to return.
